I would love to know more about these reactors and when we can invest in the companies making them.
Why did they shut down this channel ? It's is covering the cost of Sira Ushapp's salary ?
Future of progress: climate change in progressive well willing territorium cover under the vail of the revolution. I see a incoherent fragmentizedddialegtic material
Hard to estimate, your level of devotion to subtle sarcasm. The northern hemisphere needs snuggly warmth, not Cherenkov radiators shaped like a wooden punani.
Three headed nuke liar 'fishion'
Your way of explanation is 🎉🎉🎉
Eat greens greens greens. Chlorophyll is abundant in leafy greens, micro greens and sprouts. Much easier to eat lots of greens than buying a hyperbaric chamber.
I miss our Indian science explainer; where did she go? Atomic bearhugz!!!
Miss you and you content!!!
Chinese is all for THORIUM POWER
Not making new videos
Sadly she passed away from a long term illness.
Why u stopped in have a crush on you
Come back soon. We miss you ❤
She won't. She's no more 💔
Where have you gone? WE NEED YOU BACK!
No, we are not making the atmosphere thicker. This is just not true. There is a layer of warm water vapor that is largely responsible for trapping the vast majority of infrared radiation from the Earth's surface. CO2 is an extreme minor player in GHG heat trapping.
The prototype of this is ready and the reactor should be ready in 2 3 years
Is this channel dead. 😢!
It would help alot if they did like a flashlight and had multiple consmer replaceable battery packs and simple drop off of old for credit like usef cell phones.
we can mix Thoroum (Ur1%:2%Th) with Uranium to controle actual uranium chain we can continu the fission chain as you explaining!!
Excellent and very concise presentation 🎉🎉🎉
great video! I work in energy storage (having built li-ion storage systems for grid scale systems myself). This was a nice refresher!
I imagine that there are enough Nuclear Engineering aquainted people in India, that could have already completed every detail of nearly perfect Reactors and tested them, ..that there's no explanation other than bad political problems to explain the situation? ***** Steve Jobs said to his Engineering team, "You Can Do It!", and repeat as many scienced aspect-versions of this as required until results are achieved. If India doesn't know this, who does?
Near luminal speeds of plasma inside a toroid... OMFG what are you talking about woman? Risk of explosion? There is nothing to explode inside a fusion reactor, even pressure inside a vessel is near zero atmospheres. You need to investigate the material better, or stop pretending you even understand what you are talking about...
Sira when are you coming next with an awesome video.... We are eagerly waiting
It makes sense that better air quality equals better health
U are hot
Where is she?
Mam, finally India succeed to build Breeder reactor Prototype in Madras Atomic energy centre and we are in second stage🙏🇮🇳🚩🚩
Add the exorbitant taxes and joyriding is out of picture.
a.i girl
Had watched it 4 yrs back. Now watched it again. Is there any progress
Yop... Indian govt has made a thorium based nuclear reactor, up and running. It's 2 week before news only. We are 2nd country to do this. Even before China.
It’s been 1yr and 3 months 😢, hope everything is fine ❤
We miss your content Sira... Hope you're good.
The west uses energy to fuel its "decadent lifestyle"? Really? I thought India was the birthplace of Kama Sutra. Between your rape culture and misogyny, I don't think you are in a position to throw stones. Nevertheless, it was the west that invented thorium as an energy source. Otherwise, you would not even know about it.
Highest % of rapes happen in Alaska. Most number of rapes against Native Americans. Is Kamasutra a bad thing? Look at your shthole California
Sorry dear, We (The Indian Audience) failed you. 💔
She never got big. Thorium reactor and the like just aren't a topic that will grab people unfortunately. 🤷🏻♂️ Hope she's doing well otherwise.
@@ABCantonese frr i tried to find out, surprisingly she has not posted anything on her insta since a long time! i hope she is fine and happy
She was into tech unboxing and stuff in the beginning. Atleast that was better. She was consistent and showing growth. But she got bored then she started this and after she vanished. In an era where people's attention span is so less. If people are commenting on a year old, video she surely was talented.
@@kartikgudi9609 ofcourse! she was a gem! No other indian girl is doing these kinds of videos. hope she is fine and happy in her personal life
@@shubham_srt Not just girls, even the tech *guys* in India haven't been doing anything similar to this. I just now remembered after like 2+years about her channel and it seems she isn't posting anywhere.
Thorium with small amounts of uranium combined is called ANEEL. Can be used safely for generating energy
loved the video, and I am a STRONG supporter of nuclear energy, especially the tremendous potential of SMR's, but I recently watched a video that indicates that Thorium reactors creates U233 ( I think that was correct), which is easily used as weapons grade ... would like you thoughts
Girl, you're awwsome...
Femtosecond Laser-Induced Aneutronic Lattice Confinement Fusion Power propulsion Nuclear fusion occurs in massive stars with extreme temperatures and densities. These conditions can be briefly created on Earth by concentrating femtosecond (1e-15) laser pulses on the threaded concave crystalline Lithium Hydride (LiH) cylinder at the bottom of the rocket. The resulting plasma contains lithium, helium ions, protons, and electrons. Pulsed alternating electric fields shape the charged particles to directly generate DC electricity with magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) and provide thrust. MHD efficiency is more than 90%, compared with 40% for conventional energy conversion. A 1-femtosecond pulse will penetrate a thousand layers of atoms in that time, but the thermal (phonon) energy will only reach the next layer 21 femtoseconds later. The short pulse minimizes the heating and melting of the underlying material. Incorporating a cavity structure into the target material traps and slows the plasma dispersion and allows for longer interaction times, potentially leading to increased fusion reaction rates. Additionally, the cavity can reduce mass ablation, improve laser absorption, and facilitate better mixing and compression of the fuel material during the implosion phase, thus contributing to more efficient and effective fusion reactions. Cavity produced with additive manufacturing (AM) techniques minimizes variability and allows for the creation of complex structures. The laser can texture the surface to reduce albedo. Alternating pulses of electric fields can be used to expel or attract negative particles or to attract or expel positive particles at critical times during and after each laser pulse. The heavier positive particles absorb more laser energy and contribute to increased fusion rates during prolonged stays. Expelling electrons from the plasma stabilizes the plasma, reduces losses due to electron recombination, and diminishes the effect of Debye shielding. Each subsequent layer absorbs a smaller fraction of the energy. A femtosecond pulse of a single joule will heat a spot of 4um diameter and 0.3 um deep to an intensity of 1e-22 W/cm2. The first thousand layers will receive an average of 12 MeV of energy per atom, equivalent to a temperature of 24 billion kelvin and a velocity of 8e6 m/s for the heavier ions. The velocity of the protons will be faster. From the point of view of the electrons, the ions are stationary. The containment time is estimated to be 21 nanoseconds. The density is 5.7e28 particles per m3. Nuclear Fusion reactions of Lithium and Hydrogen Proton + Lithium-7 = Beryllium-8 (4.42 MeV) = 2 alpha (18.16 MeV); total 22.58 MeV Proton + Lithium-6 = alpha + Helium-3 (4.27 MeV) Proton + Helium-3 = alpha (18.8 MeV) Helium-3 + Lithium-6 = 2 alpha + Proton (16.88 Mev) Helium-3 + Helium-3 = alpha + 2 Protons (12.859 MeV) Lithium Hydride must not be exposed to water. Fusion reactions have to be undertaken inside a vacuum. The laser repetition rate controls the output power level from zero to megahertz. Such a system can be adapted for Earth by converting the charged particles directly to electricity with MHD. The exhausted charged particles can heat molten salt, storing the energy for hydrogen production, synthetic fuel production, seawater desalination, district heating or cooling, powering ships equipped with thermoacoustic Stirling generators, and power plants with supercritical carbon dioxide turbines. With such abundant energy, a trip to the moon would take only 4 hours with an acceleration of 1 G. Similarly, a journey to Mars would require just 5 days, eliminating the need to wait for Earth-Mars alignment. A trip to Saturn will require 10 days. Back to the Future: Fusion Energy from Garbage In theory any solid waste material with a density lower than nickel can be used as fuel. These materials can be mixed with binding agents and compressed into fuel rods. Materials that produce charged particles are preferred. The lower the density, the better. Avoid using materials that can produce gamma rays, neutrons, or radioactive isotopes. Most thermonuclear weapons use lithium hydride (LiH) instead of pure hydrogen for fuel. LiH offers two advantages over pure hydrogen. Firstly, LiH is solid at room temperature, allowing easier storage without extreme pressure or cooling. Secondly, lithium atoms undergo nuclear fission during the explosion, producing tritium (hydrogen-3), which enhances the fusion reaction. Lithium Hydride has a high Heat of Fusion of 2900 joules/gram, low thermal diffusivity of 1.2mm2/s, high melting point of 688oC, a molecular weight of 7.95 grams/mole, density of 0.757 grams/cm3, specific heat capacity of 6.27 j/g.k, and good electrical conductivity.
Today India succssed thoruim reactor, jai bharat
Fast breeder reactor already started in kalpakkam yesterday...so plutonium 239 is going to be produced in larger quantity a step closer to self sustainable Thorium 232..to.Th233 3rd stage nuclear reactor .soving not only major energy issues but disposal of fissile plu 239 . With NSG membership, we may be able to solve world's radioactive Plu239 disposal problem by using in our stage 3 .
Sira, this one kind of looks like you have lost your mind.
Musk seems to be getting into a authoritarian mindset. Don't worry he is not thing of a human but a machine leading all of us.
Solar will have problems with a few months of monsoon. Better to develop new nuclear. Much less land. With high temperature nuclear with heat storage will make it so solar doesn't need to be overbuilt.

Great video. Just a comment on the cycles. The main issue with the total life cycle of iron air isn't the iron electrode but the air electrode. So whilst the iron electrode can last many cycles, the air survives less.
Still waiting for this channel's comeback. Sad to see no new videos.
